What we've doing these last few weeks...

LOVING on FAMILY

Grammy, Mom, and JD on Mother's Day 2013

 

 

Chris and Deborah were able to spend a few days with us.

 

John Mark and his mom came to visit,

 

 

while they took a family greeting trip through VA, NC, SC, and GA.

 

 

What a difference two months makes!

 

Stephen came to check out his nephews as well.

 

Made for a HAPPY Mom and Dad to see All the family,

except for Mike, who had to stay home to work.

 

Other family loving time included:

David's sister Lynn who accompanied Miriam on her family greeting trip

his brother Loy and wife Claudette popped in for a couple of hours

BFFs Bill and Vicki stopped to say hello on their way back home to Tennessee

our little Anna Grace and Ben and their folks spend some time with us

and then there was dinner at Nanny Jan and Papa Wayne's, JD's great grandparents

and dinner at Mimi and Bop's, JD's grandparents too.

 

So that's what we have been doing the past few weeks

before we returned home and hit the ground running!

LOTS of loving!

and cooking some of those "kiddos' favorite things...

 

 

that makes a happy momma!

 

By the way, we get to do it all over again in December when we welcome baby Slater into the family!

Three grandbabies in one year...must be a record...well, at least for our family it is.

Thank you Father for your gift of family.

 

Thank you Father for your gift of Eternal Family through Jesus.

Are you a member of that Eternal Family?

Prayer Letter March 2013

Waiting...

I am confident of this:

I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. 

Wait for the Lord;

be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.

Psalm 27:13-14

 

I waited patiently for the Lord;

He turned to me and heard my cry.

He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire;

he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand.

he put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God.

Many will see and fear

and put their trust in the Lord.

Psalm 40:1-3

 

Find rest, O my soul, in God alone;

my hope comes from Him. NIV

My soul, wait thou only upon God;

for my expectation is from Him. KJV

Let all that I am wait quietly before God,

for my hope is in Him. NLT

Psalm 62:5
